Combined α(2)- and D(2)-receptor blockade activates noradrenergic and dopaminergic neurons, but extracellular dopamine in the prefrontal cortex is determined by uptake and release from noradrenergic terminals

Experimental and clinical evidence indicates a deficit of release and function of dopamine in schizophrenia and suggests that α(2)-adrenoceptor antagonists rescue dopamine deficit and improve the antipsychotic efficacy of D(2)-receptor antagonists. In anesthetized male rats, we investigated how the...
